Butler finished with 23 points (8-11 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 11 assists, three rebounds, and one block in 29 minutes during the Bulls’ 121-116 win versus the Pelicans on Monday.

Despite the Bulls being eliminated from playoff contention, Butler started and played 29 minutes Monday. It was the third straight game he has scored 21 points or more, and the sixth time in the last seven contests as well. Though Butler may be unlikely to surpass 30 minutes in Wednesday’s season finale against the 76ers, he might not have much trouble producing gaudy stats even in fairly limited time.
